About us
We built the dealership we wanted to buy from
Almost everyone has a bad used-car story. The car that developed a fault three weeks in. The “full history” that turned out to be two stamps and a receipt. The price that grew by £499 of admin fees somewhere between the handshake and the paperwork.
Carluvo exists because none of that is necessary. Buy the right cars, check them properly, describe them honestly, and price them fairly — and the rest of it, the pressure and the patter, simply isn't needed.
What we stand for
Four things we don't compromise on
Show, don't tell
Anyone can write "full service history" in an advert. We put the invoices, the HPI certificate and the MOT record in front of you and let you read them.
No pressure, ever
Nobody has ever bought a good car because a salesperson leaned on them. If a car isn't right for you, we'd rather say so and find you the one that is.
One honest price
We price against live market data and stand behind it. No admin fees invented at signing, no "today only" theatre, no haggling required.
Your rights, respected
The Consumer Rights Act gives you real protection when you buy from a dealer. We built our process around those rules rather than hoping you don't know them.
Our promise
What happens before a car reaches this website
Roughly one car in four that we look at makes it to the forecourt. The rest go back — because it's far cheaper to walk away from a bad car than to sell one.
- HPI provenance check — finance, write-off, theft, plate history
- Mileage verified against the full MOT record
- Multi-point mechanical and road-test inspection
- Service history checked stamp-by-stamp against invoices
- Fresh MOT where under six months remain
- Honest photography — including the marks, not just the good side
The other half of what we do
If it isn't on our forecourt, we'll go and find it
Our buyers spend their weeks in trade-only auctions and dealer networks that the public never sees. That's how we stock the forecourt — and it's how we find cars to order for customers, free of charge.
